Answer:

1) Change the length of side AB to 2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that both structures are similar, it follows that the ratio of their corresponding lengths are equal.

To find out what should be the correct length of AB that she should change to, set up the proportion showing the ratio of 2 corresponding lengths of both structures. Thus:

$\frac{PR}{AC} = \frac{PQ}{AB}$

We will assume AB is unknown.

PR = 7.5 ft

AC = 2.5 ft

PQ = 6 ft

Plug in the values into the equation

$\frac{7.5}{2.5} = \frac{6}{AB}$

Cross multiply

$AB*7.5 = 6*2.5$

$AB*7.5 = 15$

Divide both sides by 7.5

$AB = 2$

The architect should change the length of AB to 2 ft

Komok [63]

Answer:

Option D: 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ------> the entire Stefanie's allowance

we know that

She spends on clothes (1/2)x

She spends on movies (1/6)x

To find out how much more does she spend on clothes that he does on movies, subtract the amount she spends on movies from the amount she spend on clothes

$\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{6}x=\frac{2}{6}x$

Simplify

$\frac{1}{3}x$

therefore

She spends 1/3 more on clothes that he does on movies

Bumek [7]

Answer:

D (13,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

X 2 3 4 5

Y 2 5 9 13

So the ordered pairs are (2,2),(3,5), (4,9), (5,13)

and the ordered pairs for the inverse are

(2,2),(5,3), (9,4), (13,5)

from which D (13,5) is found among the options.

Please answer this correctly

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

17 teaspoons

Step-by-step explanation:

1 tbs : 3 tsp

$5 \frac{2}{3} = \frac{17}{3} \\ \frac{17}{3} tbs \: = 3( \frac{17}{3} )tsp \\ \frac{17}{3} tbs = 17tsp$

Always start by converting mixed numbers into fractions;

multiply the whole number part by the denominator (under part) of the fraction part and add this to the numerator (upper part);

Then simply apply the ratio.
